A powerful editorial, about more than just Kirby, but about the Big Two's consistent unethical treatment of creators across the board. But especially unforgivable, their treatment of Alan Moore and Jack Kirby, the two who largely created the foundation their multi-billion-dollar cross-media empires are built on.

It would not only be good ethics, but also simply good and professional business, to reward in some modest proportionate way those whose work built their empires. Even just righting the wrongs of past injustices, from this point forward, would do a great deal to wipe away the company shames of the past, and give back to these companies far more than they stole from Alan Moore, Jack Kirby, Shuster, Siegel and others.
